Environmental Impact of Structural Metals

The environmental impact of structural metals is assessed on the basis of life-cycle analysis. The environmental safety index is calculated for the most common structural metals. Such assessments permit estimation of the environmental hazards over the life cycle of metals and comparison of the impac...

Description
Summary:The environmental impact of structural metals is assessed on the basis of life-cycle analysis. The environmental safety index is calculated for the most common structural metals. Such assessments permit estimation of the environmental hazards over the life cycle of metals and comparison of the impact of different groups of structural materials—in particular, metals and polymers.
